Last week, the BHS Sports Staff for The Return of the Eye previewed the girls basketball team. Next up is the boys varsity basketball team.
With a lot coming back and an improved bench, the boys are looking at a season to remember and a deep playoff run.
After coming off of a hard-fought loss to Columbia in the sectional finals last year, the squad is focused, working hard, and has goals of winning the CVC Metro title along with reaching the district tournament.
Head Coach Jeff Shepherd stated, “We have a couple new players who transferred in and great leadership from seniors Jaiden Basinger, Jaiden Paschal, and juniors Santana Sammons and Jaiden Ramos. We have had one good scrimmage that went very well. We have to work together, have great leadership, and don’t break the chemistry.”
Early on, Coach Shepherd has been pleased with the focus: “Practices are going good, the team chemistry is going good, the first couple weeks have distractions, like wrapping up Fall sports and Fall banquets, but we have had good concentration on just basketball.”
The CVC Metro division is a weekly challenge, but the Hurricanes have what it takes to be at the top: Speed, athleticism, high basketball IQ, chemistry, and a hunger for success.
The boys are excited to open up the season on Monday, November 28, at 5:30 against Cardinal High School. The game is home, so pack the gym and root these boys on in their quest for greatness.
Go Canes!
